Knowing that one dime has a 10 cent value and that a nickle has a 5 cent value, we can use multiplication or addition to find the answer.
5 x 10 = 50 5 dimes together are worth 50 cents.
2 x 5 = 10 2 nickles together are worth 10 cents.
50 + 10 = 60 5 dimes and 2 nickles are worth 60 cents when added together.
ANSWER: Aaron has 60 cents.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
A geometric sequence;
-2,10,-50
Required to determine the nth term
The nth term in a geometric sequence is given by the formula;
where 
is the first term and r is the common ratio;
In this case;
r = 10 ÷ -2
= -5
Therefore;
To get the nth term in the given geometric sequence we use;
Thus, the nth term is
Remark
The way you have to set this up is to take the new number for the males and put it over the total for the males and females. The new number for the males / total = 3/5.
Step One
Find the total number of females
100 + 160 = 260 when 100 females have been added to the study.
Step Two
Find the number of males
The total number of males = 240 + x where x is the number of males to be added.
Step Three
Find the total for both
260 + 240 + x = Total
500 + x = Total.
Step Four
Find the ratio of males to total
(240 + x) / (500 + x) = 3/5
Step Five
Cross multiply and solve
(240 + x)*5 = (500+x)*3
1200 + 5x = 1500 + 3x Subtract 1200 from both sides.
5x = 1500 - 1200 + 3x
5x = 300 + 3x Subtract 3x from both sides.
5x - 3x = 300
2x = 300 Divide by 2
x = 300 / 2
x = 150
Check
(240 + 150 ) / (500 + 150) = ? 3/5
390 / 650 = ? 3/5
39/65 = ? 3/5 Divide the top and bottom on the left by 13
3/5 = 3/5 and it checks.
The least common multiple (LCM) of 5, 6, and 7 is 210.
5 × 42 = 210
6 × 35 = 210
7 × 30 = 210
